It's ON. Tony Smith has very kindly offered us the use of his big shed and a camping area. More details to come, but this will be a 'fend for yourself' expedition. Brooks Bay is not a huge distance, so we are hoping to take the Swiftsure and maybe some Grebes. There will be an outgoing tide all morning on Saturday which will help us get out. However that will be a hindrance on Sunday: it may be best to leave our passage through the narrower part of the river until later to mitigate this. Weather at this stage is looking benign.
